Since its establishment, the State of Israel refuses to recognize dozens of Bedouin villages in the Negev-Naqab, and they are not marked on official maps. The state claims that the Bedouin community is a community of nomads, and therefore, its members have no rights over lands in the Negev-Naqab.

We invite you to wander around the website, read texts written by residents about their villages, watch photos and videos, investigate the different historic structures that were built and used by the community for hundreds of years, and see every village and village in its place – on the map.
